Direction
Tells Base UI components the reading direction, so keyboard and layout behave in right-to-left languages.
Usage
import { DirectionProvider } from "@zynactra/ui/direction"<html lang="ar" dir="rtl">
<body>
<DirectionProvider direction="rtl">{children}</DirectionProvider>
</body>
</html>useDirection() reads the current direction inside a component.
Guidelines
- Set
diron the HTML too. The provider handles component behaviour (arrow keys in sliders, menus opening to the correct side);dirhandles text and layout. - Use logical utilities (
ms-*,pe-*,start-*) instead of left/right ones in your own code so it flips with the direction. - Icons that point (arrows, chevrons) should flip in RTL; icons of objects shouldn't.
API reference
Behaviour and props come from Base UI. See the Base UI Direction Provider docs.
